Understanding the problem

Extensive user research revealed challenges in earning and redeeming units within enrolled loyalty programs. A major issue is the difficulty in collecting points, compounded by a consistently limited and expensive rewards catalog.


With Rewards Web people could collect all the points from their loyalty programs, such as Airline Miles or Bank points, and use them to make purchases on, for example, Amazon.

The Chrome extension

We designed a Google Chrome extension that interacts with e-commerce and retail shops in the purchase process. It was really challenging to find the best way to help the user to not only use points from a single loyalty program, but to join several and even combine them with a credit or debit card purchase.

The platform

Together with the Chrome extension, we also achieved to build a platform for the management of loyalty programs, points and payment methods within the product.

With such a complex product, it was key to test several times with a prototype and make all the necessary iterations for its correct performance.

We also designed the website to promote the product that nowadays is up and running. You can learn more about Rewards Web here.
